Newspaper Page Text-I. WHERE'S EMILV?; ll by Carolyn Wells A CHAPTER XLII. At last Stone rose, but MisB Wol--cott said, hesitatingly: "I haven't told you what 1 want to tell you." "Get on with It then." he re turned, looking at his watch. He had already learned bow to talk to this vacillating young woman. "It's It's about a sort of society not society, but a band or a clique or something for for form ing a new race "Let me help you," said Stone gently. "You've in mind a move ment for an institution or com munity that shall have as its pro genitors only the best and finost specimens of our young people, and they shall be held captive and made to become the fathers and mothers of a superior race of hu f.man belngB that shall live in a Bort of Utopia " '' "Yes. yes, how did you know?" "1 know all about that thing. It may he sincere In its intents, but it is not above suspicion in its ways and means. Now, you think that maybe Miss Duane was abducted for that purpose, and spirited away to the lair of those people and will never ho seen or heard of again." "Yes. Mr. Stone, yes. That's what I think, and you see, when they took her, Polly Pennington was with her, and they had to get rid of Polly, or she would tell on them." "I soe.' Now, Miss Wolcott, dis miss all this from your mind; there's nothing in it. Kor, in the firBt place, they don't want young people of Miss Duane's type; they want larse, Handsome oiouuea. Nordics, the type that they have decided is best for this scheme of , theirs. This is no dispargemcnt 'i to Miss Duane's beauty or cnarm but I happen to know that she is one of the persons they would not select. And, another thing, no use painting them blacker than they are. I'm very sure they would not resort to murder, or to crime of any sort, other than their ab ductions, which they do not con iSider crime. If you'll take my ad vice, you'll not mention thU theory to anvhodv else, for I aBStire you it is not the true one, and why stir up a hornet's nest over nothing at all? We're going to find Miss Duane, and you have already been of the greatest assistance to mo. Now, will you let me linger here a moment to look at some of your Interesting books, and then I will collect Miss Bailoy and run along home." As good as his word, Stone re mained in the tiny library a few moments, and then reappeared and he and Betty said good-by to their hostess and made their way back to Kuollwood. f "You've learned something! ' Betty exclaimed. "You don't have to tell me! You learned something Imnortant." "I did, you little witch. How . do vou read me o well?" i "Oh, when a man is beaming all over-Vlth' satisfatftloiCafid imps ! tient to get home and think it all over, it doesn't require second Bight to gather that he achieved something worth while." "You're perfectly right. Now, if you don't aHk me what I learned vnn'11 he a real aneel." "You wouldn't tell me if I did ask you," aald Betty philosophic . ally "so what's the use?" "No use. my child. Your friend, put forth a most amazing theory nf Kmilv's liisanoearance." "Yes. I know. The New Race." ''I thought you'd know about it. Mian Wolrntt told VOU?" "Yes, and I've heard of the ri- (llnilmis mildness elsewhere. I live in fear of being gobbled up by them." , : "You're blonde enou?h," said Stone, critically, "but you're not . big enough. They want young "Don't talk about it. I think it's horrid. That isn't the help Jane gave you. Is It?" "No, that isn't the help Jane gave me. The help she gave me she didn't know she was giving. "Well. I won't tease. I know vnn'il mil na when vou et ready. And now can you got Emily back?" "I hope so; I sincerely hope and hnllpvfl KO." At Knollwood they found .Abel Collins also the Reverend Mr. oar ner. And these two cuests were en iraunrf In a sliirited discussion about the general character and spirit of Emily Duane. Sayre had become so Incensed at thplr remarks and insinuations that he had left the group and gone to the library, where Stone . found him, idly looking over some illustrated papers. "Cheer up. 1oy," , he said, ' "brighter days are coming." "I couldn't stand that old par inn." Hodnev exploded. "He insin nated the worst thiugs about , Emily." "Such as?" i "Oh. vou know her little foolish nhoiit. the wedding cere ' i mony. She intended to omit the word 'nbev' and Bhe said she meant ' to keep her maiden name after we wore married, and sucn mauei As If I cared. Probably alie' Mianirp her mind about it anywa lint that dreadful man Implied that any girl who held such ideas was quite capable of throwing her friend down the ravine or any thing else.' I wanted to throttle him." "! ilnn't blame you." said Ston "But let him 20. and forget it. He icn't worth worrying over. Now. Savre. I have to go to New York tomorrow. And I want you to hold the fort here." "nf murse: hut what can I do "Nothing but wait. And watch neel anvthing to break -..t .nmnihinz might. As I told BfeUy Bailey.

Still, If I'm risht, the end Is in sight. And if I'm wrong, we have to be gin all over again. I'd gladly tell you what It's all about, but it's wiser not to. You'd sav ao your self, if you knew all. Now, I see your friend the parBon is depart ing, so you wait a minute till he's really gone, then you go out and play with Betty and Pete and Bend Aunt Judy in here to me. 1 would converse with her.' Sayre did as he was told, and in a few minutes Aunt Judy came fluttering in, all excitement that Bhe should have been summoned. "Just a few minutes' chat, Mrs. Bell," Stone said, Bmilin; at her. "1 want you to tell me exactly all about the so-called Atlantic City pictures." "Oh, those," and Aunt Judy looked a little disturbed. "Yes, I can't think they wore very terrible, were they?" "Not really, but It seemed well, I'll tell you all about It. You see, Emily and Pauline Pennington went down to Atlantic City for a week by themselves. Pauline lia-1 had one of her tantrums I mean one of her nervous breakdowns and Jim thought it would do her good to get a little change. He would have gone with her, hut she wanted Emily, and Emily thought It rather a lark and said she'd go. So the two went, and they had a hish old time. I don't know what possessed them, but they thought it would be fun to pretend Emily was married anil Pauline was not. So they changed names, and let it go at that. Nothing dreadful hap pened, except that they met the Swami." "For the first time?" "Yes, they had never seen him before, and he waB holding meet lugs and they went, and somehow he spotted them as easy marks, and be attached himself, rather, and he got money from them for his cause. Well, then one day, bo proposed they all have their pic tures taken, and they did, Pauline and the Swami and Emily and the Swami and all three tosother. Then, and I never was sure it was the Swami's doing, but I strongly suspect it, the photographer took some trick picture!, as they call them. You see aid probably you now more about it than 1 ao they have a pjepared plate or something, and . a girl sits on a bench and hasder picture taken, but when its is'finished up there's a man on the)ench also, with his arm around hp." "Yes. I knr". a common game. And all rigid if dono by the right people In tie right spirit, but a dangerous ;apon in the hands of sharpers 0 blackmailers." Yes. soft proved. The photog rapher's aent but I think it was the Swaips agent came to them several tries and demanded money or he wqjld put the pictures In the aner.'. fe only asked small, sums, so Emit and Pauline paid him. but theivere glad to get home and get outff his clutches." He i-ver bothered them after they cie home, then?" No. I suppose they learned that the gif had plenty of protection here.

Sur prise testimony came from a mo ther against her daughter today as the deposition of Mrs. Laura Wal ton was read into the trial of the $11,500 love-note suit brought by Thomas O'Brien against the screen comedian, Harry Langdon. Mrs. Walton, who is believed to be in Salt Lake City, said Helen O'Brien Langdon, her daughter, was guilty of "improper relations" with Langdon before she obtained a divorce from O'Brien and mar ried the actor. The mother's testimony was the second accusation ugainst the Langdons' assertion their love be fore their wedding in 1020 was only platonlc. O'Brien, who is at tempting to collect three notes which he said Langdon .gave him to crush a $250,000 alienation ot affections suit, had charged-'the couple with impropriety. Thy O'Briens were diverced in 102S. The daughter's testimony of a hard life with O'Brien, during which he killed her love for him, was met by the mother's descrip tion of O'Brien as a "loving, kind and dutiful husband."

Georgia Attempting Comeback as Biggest Peach Crop Producer ATLANTA, June 30. Speaking of comebacks, how about those Georgia peaches? Last year Georgia lost its bu premacy as ruler of the peach realm east of the Rockies. A bjtihII crop and poor quality cuts its cur load shipments to 5.22S and the crop's value to $3,312,000. This year t he crop won't be much larger, but the quality is ex pected to put Georgia back on top of the roost again. A 7,000-car output with an estimated value of 57,000,000 is in prospect. The entire Dixie peach belt, says A. D. Jones, director of the Georgia state bureau of markets, will not ship more than 13,000 cars this year. Georgia's comeback will be off set in the south by anticipated small yields in Texas and Arkan sas, where winter kill took a heavy toll. Last year Arkansas chal lenged Georgia's supremacy with 2 635,000 bushels and Illinois led all states east of the Rockies with 3,600,000 bushels. Georgia's record, its poorest in years, was 2.SSO.OO0. The estimated 7,000-car produc tion for Georgia will yield growers far above thb 51.15-per-bushel farm price of 1929, and the expected S7,- 000,000 total will compare favor ably with the crop in 1928, when the yield was worth $8,100,000. -The situation, says Jones, dem onstrates the need of controlled marketing for the entire peach belt. This year nature took a hand with winter-kills in the western sector. Last year insect pests and adverse weather conditions hit the southeastern section. Georgia Is preparing to handle its futuro -surpluses in freezing plants equipped to handle "dead ripe" fruit, the cream ot the crop, but unfit for shipment. The Eouthern pencil season, which starts in lute May, usually runs until late July. North Caro lina, Arkansas, Texas, South Caro lina, Tennessee and Louisiana are the other important peach produ cers in the south. F-jid on Savings ?

He established the Omaha World in 1SS5 and consolidated it with the Omaha Horald In 1889, creat ing the World-Herald, which he still owns and publishes. .paving the lamlly political tra dition of republicanism, he became a democrat and fought the early names of "18 to 1 with William Jennings Bryan, then a young No braska lawyer. To give Hrynn an additional voice Hitchcock made him editor of his paper before the Chicago convention of 1896, when Bryan was nominated for president.
